[@kathleenh6642]

Hello I am new to this hobby and to you tube, I am so grateful I came across your video, you have helped me with all your tutorials and videos. You are an amazing colorist and teacher thank you so much for sharing your talent and helping so many. I hope you are doing well and would love to see more videos. TY TY TY

[@Simmo-hs6wz]

Thank you so much. I am a beginner to adult colouring and this has been a brilliant video. It has made lots of sense to me. I have actually bought the book to give it a go haha. Awesome ❤

[@ClaireHoloway]

Such wonderful feedback Thankyou. Everything broken down to small, manageable chunks ♥️

[@ellym279]

Wow. Thank you for explaining so clearly how to do this.♦️🥰

[@csiribicsiriba]

Exciting!! There is a lot more to your "coloring" than just "coloring", you make a lot of decisions as to shade and light, water movement, and the way light hits the froth. Lovely, thank you.

[@ClaireHoloway]

Thank you so much!!! The trick here is that one technique decision can be used for many designs 🎨❤️

[@krissykolorjunki5304]

wow, glorious colors

[@cathiefalls9583]

Absolutely fantastic 👏

[@christyaustin3399]

Your work is amazing. It makes it look like the waves are coming off the page. So realistic. Absolutely love it.

[@ClaireHoloway]

What a lovely message - thankyou 🥰❤️🥰

[@turboteresa1]

I’m late to finding you but I will be your biggest fan! This video spoke to me because that’s how I thought to approach these intricate pages but you made this process approachable and I love it!!! Thank you!

[@ClaireHoloway]

Bless you, what a lovely post. Kerby is a stunning artist and I really feel this technique can be applied to all of his only pages xxxx

[@terristanley6900]

Fantastic, Claire! Thank you for sharing this.

[@margaretgould1521]

wow you are so good, I have quite a few coloring books, but always find it hard to start, I like the your method, you make order to the insanity! thanks. 🧐🤔🤓

[@naah]

The amazing thing about colouring is that anyone really can do it. You mentioned that you don't have any art qualifications. I have two and yet here I am learning how to colour. You've made this picture look so much less daunting and now I'm looking forward to starting it :) Thank you!

[@josieanselmo9072]

I would probably never color this one but I am now ! Thank you Claire you are amazing !!! For sure you are the best Colourist !!

I subscribed because you are fantastic !!!! 😁

[@juliexw2002]

Amazing talent! Beautiful coloring. 💕

[@lorrykohls]

Excellent teaching techniques & pace. I'm new to coloring & to Kerby images. You truly made it easy to follow you step by step. You are very gifted w/a beautiful sense of color, rythm & flow. I want to sincerely thank you for sharing your talent.

[@ClaireHoloway]

Lorry Kohls wow, that message gave me a huge lift this morning - THANKYOU 🌹

[@Penanna]

I always felt like I was a "Bad colourist" for burnishing, but to see you work your magic using the same burnishing technique makes me feel a lot better! =D You're a wizard Claire, thank you.

[@ClaireHoloway]

Penanna but with Prismas you don’t even need a burnishing pencil 😉

[@CrystalKing1956]

This is perfect! I love that you tell us the palette you're using. Just started watching and will definitely subscribe.

[@gsagadin]

this is amazing. I have avoided this whole book! Now, I may get a copy and start. Thank you for your talents!!

[@CLAldridgeArt]

Thank You Claire.. what a wonderful way to think about and break down a complex coloring project! By the way, self taught is the best way, it means you earned what you learned through observation and trial.. your coloring work is simply awesome!

[@ClaireHoloway]

C L Aldridge Art 😘😘

[@nostra-thomas1557]

Outstanding! I have a few Kerby books. He's wonderful

[@rmuller366]

I love the artists that make our coloring work so easy by using fabulous line shading. I figured out early on how to use the darkest color in the heaviest line shading. The results are fabulous Claire! I look for illustrations with lots of line shading and have now been inspired to begin drawing again so I can create pages with my preferred amount of line shading. It won’t be easy, but nothing worth it ever is, is it. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work here, and thumbs up from the artist is just so well deserved. Beautiful, beautiful work. Blessings to you and yours.

[@amandascolourmadness4791]

Thank you so much Claire. xxxx Awesome xx

[@pattigraham9130]

THANK YOU! I just discovered you today and I wish I'd seen your tutorial a couple years ago when I started this crazy obsession! I love your very clear guidance on starting with the black, I did not know that technique. I'm going to get this Kirby book - I have all his others - but didn't get this one because it didn't speak to me. Until now. I need to do this whirlpool like you!!! You are wonderful and kind, I can't wait to see your other tutorials.

[@ClaireHoloway]

Patti Graham what a lovely message to wake up to!!!

[@Gwenluvsmusic]

This is INCREDIBLE. So is the green man. Recognition from Kerby is well deserved. I showed my mother one of his books earlier, and she said no way 🤣 She prefers big patterns, where crazy daughter prefers a challenge.

[@ClaireHoloway]

Gwenluvsmusic go crazy daughter!!!! 😀🤣

[@yazosoyo]

I’m reluctant to buy any of his books, but this video is amazing! Straightforward but so effective and striking!

[@barbarahansen674]

You are an inspiration! Wish I found you long ago ,,I put his pages aside because it looked too hard,,Thank You!!!

[@ClaireHoloway]

You can apply the same principal to all of his pages. Check out the Kerbys on my Pinterest page Claire Holoway Colouring!!

[@linesymons9488]

You are very talented, Claire. It is superb. 😍 Thank you for sharing!

[@imanhanoui]

This is perfection. Your voice and your skills. I really really enjoy your videos 🤗

[@angelakirkEarnest]

You are amazing

[@BarbaraColour]

Your colours are so wonderful!!! 🤩🤩🤩 I don't have that book but I record your video in my playlist, I will certainly find another sea page to apply your technique! 😍

[@yvettecates2884]

Thank you Claire for sharing your amazingly helpful skills ! I have watched real artists videos and yours clearly are the most helpful ! You really have a way of explaining just exactly what we need to know and how to achieve each step without complicating it ! You truly are a blessing to someone just starting out in their coloring or someone who wants to improve what they’ve thought was the correct technique ! And so great that you got a thumbs up from Kirby ! When I was thumbing through Instagram I came across your green man and thought “wow that’s amazing “, before I ever found your channel . So happy and grateful for your videos ! When I first came across Kirbys books I thought , oh I could never attempt to color his wonderful art , I did not want to ruin it . So I purchased several of his books just to thumb through and be amazed at his talent . I could seriously look for hours at his eye for detail . You have broken it down so it makes it hopeful to try ! Love and best wishes for continued success on your channel !❤️

[@ClaireHoloway]

Thankyou for taking the time to leave such wonderful feedback. You’ve made my week ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@toniearling2953]

Stunning 😍

[@RainChains4Less]

I just completed this page after viewing this video. THANK YOU! Mapping it out made it so much fun to do! Before watching your video, l would never have colored this page. You have changed my world! Your the Best!

[@angiecook6115]

fantastic, and so easy to follow, thank you

[@K.Marie119]

With all due respect, I already have a best friend..... ...... ...... ....... My Derwent electric eraser.😅 Black pencil will have to get in line behind the eraser and white colored pencil. Seriously, though, this is both a great tutorial and a beautiful completed coloring page. I was given a copy of Animorphia from my care team when I "graduated" (their words, not mine) from a residential chemical dependency program. I picked up coloring through the OT department as a method for dealing with anxiety, cravings, and good ol' boredom. All I had access to before that was the 2 mandala books from OT and a pack of Crayola colored pencils (sent as gift from my mother.) At the time I had no idea that there was this whole adult coloring community. The jump in skill level, from the 5th grade mandala book to Animorphia absolutely terrified me. But people like you and Peta Hewit (sp?) were so helpful. Now Kirby Rosanes books are some of my favorite. This hobby, and the things I learn from videos have helped me through some very difficult times. Just wanted to say "thanks."

[@ClaireHoloway]

What a lovely message to brighten my day. Thankyou ❤️❤️

[@belindaosgood]

Simply magical watching you bring an image to life with such richness and depth.

[@deniseoliver851]

Awesome in every respect. Brilliant technique. Thank you x

[@mariakorolevacoloring]

Thank you for this brilliant tutorial!

[@sfzaki]

Thanks for sharing! I recommend using a pencil extender for the short pencils not to strain your wrist.

[@kristinawebber6679]

Thank you Claire! This is amazing and you have made it look so simple. I was scared of this page, and was going to skip it altogether, your technique in breaking this page down is wonderful.

[@jennymorgan1587]

This is stunning, and thank you for your tips on how to separate sections of a complicated picture. I usually bypass these pages, it's all too much to take in.

[@maggieplatt7734]

I am inspired , say the same page just colored and it defiantly is not the same. I'm gong to have to buy the book now so I can give your ideas a shot. thanks for sharing.

[@tiphanyjaentschke3216]

Hello Claire, I love what you have created. I’m going to give it a try however I will be using my Faber Castel Polychromos. You have explained it so it doesn’t look so daunting thank you 😊

[@annieweisbeck5922]

I've only recently found you on KZbin and am so happy I did! Your teaching style makes it easy to understand your techniques and to follow along. When you broke this down into sections it all made sense. Thank you for your videos, especially during this crazy time in our world. Quick question -- when you print an image, what paper do you use? I love the effect you get when you lay down your pencils.

[@ottohaze9221]

WOW....do my pages look better in Kerby’s books using your techniques! Very easy to follow and learn videos...thank you!

[@ClaireHoloway]

Otto Haze awesome. I LOVE it when sharing the tips and tricks really helps. Makes it all worthwhile 😍🎨🎨🎨🎨

[@eileenduckett3012]

I bet he will love this one.

[@rebornsnuzzles2573]

This is truly stunning. I don't know how you get this color saturation with Prismacolors. Maybe it's the paper in my book, but the Prismas leave a lot of white paper through for me. I have just a small set of the Prismas, but I have the full set of the Polychromos. I'm learning that I like a harder pencil. It's all so subjective, isn't it?

[@V-Smith]

I use ultra fine sharpies (for now until I get bored and find a new favorite) and have essentially mastered the art of blending them. Do you do anything as absolutely and wonderfully stunning as this masterpiece using sharpies or any alcohol based pens?

[@ClaireHoloway]

I don’t, but you’ll find Colour Bright Bex n various media platforms who does ❤️

[@dianebauergolden7151]

Just wondering if you will be posting a completed picture for us? Thanks, love your work & instructions!

[@floresd77]

Hello all I hope everyone is doing well.. Well we are in the 3rd month of the new year 2023!!! I like this I'm going to be experimenting with something like this also I noticed just to bring this up I just received my Colormorphia: Celebrating Kerby Rosanes's Coloring Challenges Paperback from Amazon and the paper in that book (Not sure if I should've gotten the other version of the book) I know that the color pencils don't pick up the colors and the paper is light glossy paper and the 2 page art work is really nice but can't work with it. So now I thinking I'm going to have to unbind and cut the spine of this book format it to be scanned single page for the single pages and for the 2 page I would scan this for a 11 x 17 to capture details. And then next buy the right paper and then I'm thinking using Color pencils, Paint markers with chisel tips also fine point tips with the metallic and stander paint pens too.

[@jessicabirkett5123]
